In this paper, we argue for the inclusion of archaeology in discussions about how humans have contributed to and dealt with climate change, especially in the long term. We suggest Niche Construction Theory as a suitable framework to that en...
Operationalizing cultural adaptation to climate change: contemporary examples from United States agriculture [0.03%]
美国农业适应气候变化的对策措施——当代例证分析

It has been proposed that climate adaptation research can benefit from an evolutionary approach. But related empirical research is lacking. We advance the evolutionary study of climate adaptation with two case studies from contemporary Unit...
Adaptive irrigation management by Balinese farmers reduces greenhouse gas emissions and increases rice yields [0.03%]
巴厘岛农民的自适应灌溉管理可减少温室气体排放并增加水稻产量

The potential for changes in water management regimes to reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) in rice paddies has recently become a major topic of research in Asia, with implications for top-down versus bottom-up management strategies. Flooded ric...
The impacts of climate change, energy policy and traditional ecological practices on future firewood availability for Diné (Navajo) People [0.03%]
气候变化、能源政策及传统生态实践对狄耐人柴薪供应的未来影响——基于美国西南部地区的研究

Local-scale human-environment relationships are fundamental to energy sovereignty, and in many contexts, Indigenous ecological knowledge (IEK) is integral to such relationships. For example, Tribal leaders in southwestern USA identify firew...
Small-scale farmer responses to the double exposure of climate change and market integration [0.03%]
面临气候变化和市场融合双重影响的中小规模农户的应对机制分析——基于埃塞俄比亚的研究案例

Anthropologists have long studied how small-scale societies manage climate variation. Here, we investigate how Yucatec Maya subsistence farmers respond to climate stress, and the ways in which market integration may enhance or disturb respo...
Socio-economic predictors of Inuit hunting choices and their implications for climate change adaptation [0.03%]
因纽特人狩猎选择的社会经济预测因素及其对气候变化适应的影响

In the Arctic, seasonal variation in the accessibility of the land, sea ice and open waters influences which resources can be harvested safely and efficiently. Climate stressors are also increasingly affecting access to subsistence resource...
The dual hypothesis of homeostatic body weight regulation, including gravity-dependent and leptin-dependent actions [0.03%]
包括重力依赖和瘦素依赖作用的体重调节双重假说
John-Olov Jansson,Frederik Anesten,Daniel Hägg et al.
John-Olov Jansson et al.
Body weight is tightly regulated when outside the normal range. It has been proposed that there are individual-specific lower and upper intervention points for when the homeostatic regulation of body weight is initiated. The nature of the h...
The provisioned primate: patterns of obesity across lemurs, monkeys, apes and humans [0.03%]
饲养的灵长目动物:狐猴、猴子、猿和人类的肥胖模式

Non-human primates are potentially informative but underutilized species for investigating obesity. I examined patterns of obesity across the Primate order, calculating the ratio of body mass in captivity to that in the wild. This index, re...

Absolute energy from fats and carbohydrates and the proportion of carbohydrates in the food supply have increased over 50 years. Dietary energy density (ED) is primarily decreased by the water and increased by the fat content of foods. Prot...

The relationship between high body weight and mental health has been studied for several decades. Improvements in the quality of epidemiological, mechanistic and psychological research have brought greater consistency to our understanding o...
